Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of cleaning compositions and solvents used therein.
  • the invention relates to an environmentally friendly solvent component of alkyl amides for cleaning including but not limited to food and oily soil hard surface cleaning compositions and pot and pan soaking compositions.
  • Solvents derived from renewable biological feedstocks that are non-toxic and have very good environmental properties are becoming highly desirable for replacement of many halogenated or other toxic solvents.
  • D-limonene is a biodegradable cleaning solvent and degreaser occurring in nature as the main component of citrus peel oil. These user-friendly characteristics encourage the use of d-limonene in solvent applications. However, d-limonene lacks some physical properties that limit its applicability to more widespread use.
  • D-limonene is not water-miscible and consequently not easily water-rinsable and is considered a non-aqueous cleaning solvent. D-limonene is a slow-drying solvent that does not quickly evaporate off of surfaces to which it has been applied.
  • water miscibility is important. Being able to rinse a solvent-cleaned surface with water after the solvent cleaning step is preferable to rinsing with an organic solvent. Furthermore, aqueous rinses are often easier to handle and dispose of after application. Thus, water rinse ability is highly desirable in a cleaning solvent for economic and environmental reasons.
  • US 2012/295831 provides foaming light duty liquid detergent formulations that contain at least one cleaning solvent, at least one anionic surfactant and at least foam stabilizing surfactant are disclosed.
